Kim Kramer, RD, LDN

Illinois

As a Kids Eat Right campaign volunteer, I was a recipient of a Fuel Up to Play60 RD mini-grant. I had the opportunity to work with kids and staff at two local elementary schools to help improve the school wellness environment. Working as a Fuel Up to Play60 RD was one of the most rewarding things I have done in my career so far. I have seen the impact that I made with students this year that would not have happened otherwise if a dietitian was not placed in their school.
